I'm finally back in Singapore!!!
Omg, I can't believe I'm back! :D I can't feel myself back in Singapore, except the fact that Singapore is sooooooooo WARM! I'm sweating in the airport when I used to think airport is cold enough for me. Haha!
I wanted to blog for the last time before I depart to Singapore but I din have the time to update at all. I went traveling, rushing around like running for Marathons! I shall not elaborate my marathon routes because it's a loooong story.
Okay, before I carry on with my updates on my life in Germany, did I mention that my timetable is awesome?! 2 full days followed by 2 half days of lessons and additionally long weekends because we have FRIDAY OFF! Oh god! I'm loving this! But, why are our modules sounding so weird? Workplace and Industrial Relations? Workplace Health Promotion Management? =| Whatever it is, I hope it's easy to score!
Zurich was a nice place though having high living expenses! I love their clean environment as compared to Germany. Most of the people there knows how to speak English so it's easy to communicate. And, I love some of the streets there, took some photos and I especially like the bridges. I din really buy anything since it was so expensive everywhere. We've got a good hotel though. :)
International Business and Marketing was CRAP! Totally crap! The going-to-bald professor is simply telling us his experience with other cultures because he had gone all over Europe and proudly came to Asian countries and stayed in China for a while. And, he always targets Singapore when all the time we were not listening to him! Not about the content that is boring, the way he talks arrogantly pisses people off and I couldn't listen to him for long! I doubt I can pass both the modules. Everyone said International Business questions was too difficult to understand, even the native speakers, Americans and English. I think there was something wrong with the phrasing. Anyway, I crap my way through. *Pray, just for a pass*
After the exams, Zhi Yin and I rushed our way to Heidelberg to buy my mum's long wanted Cuckoo Clock. I spent 229 euro to buy it but was able to claim 25 euro. Then, we did some shopping in H&M. Bought things for my lovely friends. :D Hope they like it! Hees.
That night, we had a dinner with our class, sponsored by BA. We were only able to stay for a short while due to the limited time as we had to rush to catch our train to Frankfurt Hahn Airport which goes to London.
Lauren, our English friend, brought us around and let us stay at her place for free. Of course, we did buy something for her Nan (grandma). Her whole family is so nice to us. The next day, we wanted to meet the rest of our group of internationals for Duck Tour but we missed it. Luckily, the Duck Tour guy was nice and fitted us inside the next slot because there were 6 who withdrew out. We went on the Duck Tour with only the 4 of us, Lauren, Nastja (Slovenian), Zhi Yin and me. Had their famous British Fish & Chips after a long walk to the Tower Bridge. Nothing really special but it was delicious. :) London trip ended with Lauren driving us early to the airport. We bid goodbye and hopefully she will keep her promise and come to Singapore! Can't wait to fetch her!
Then, our Italy trip started. Flied to Venice, took a bus to the city and we had a hard time finding our hotel. It took us an hour and carrying our luggage up and down the numerous bridges. Venice is really beautiful! The scenery is very nice, though you see the old buildings but they are so pretty! I love Venice! Their gelato is unbelievable delicious! I had like 4 in a day! I bought many Morano Glass necklace. They were so gorgeous and cheap! I think I'll be giving out presents the next few days like Santa Claus. Haha. I've given most of them to my family and Dear's family.
Pretty right? Looks just like a postcard. :D
We stayed a night in Venice and took a train to Milan. Milan was stunning with everyone wearing branded goods, even their dogs are with Burberry strap around their neck. The rich lady in front of me, queuing to pay the Zara's products, bought more than 300 euro worth of goods! Oh my god, at that instance I wish god could drop some money down. I think if you have no money, I rather you fly to somewhere else. Kinda regret going to Milan.
Milan Cathedral or called Duomo di Milano
One thing I can conclude about Italians is that they are DAMN RACIST! They detest Chinese and the fact that Chinese stole away their jobs are not their fault. Duh! We went into this restaurant where this stupid racist waitress 'served' us. She did not even tell us where we should actually sit and roughly pointed a squeezy corner seats for us. No menus and expected us to go over. When ordering the food, no feeling of friendliness, not even a smile. Another couple came in sat beside us, speaking English (so we assume they are not Italians), the same waitress guided them to the table and gave them cutlery with menus. She got this smile all the way while they approached her. What shit is this?! FUCKING Racist Italians! It din leave me a good impression. Venice, we met a few nice people so I would probably go back again, perhaps with my partner for Honeymoon. ;) I've heard from my brother that it was reported that Venice may sink down in the future. Hopefully, not before I go for the second time.
Guess what's the weight of my check-in luggage back to Singapore? It's 38.5kg! That's not all, I was holding the other 2 big hand carry weighing at least 5kg each and carrying my bagpack with laptop. It was fucking heavy! I din know it could add up to such heavy luggages. My stuffs fitted the bags perfectly, just that it was too heavy to carry. I had 10kg of my stuffs sent by DHL already. And speaking of that, mine was not delivered successfully! RAH! I'm so fed up because it may return back to Mosbach and I need to pay extra to send it back! I dunno what is the problem with the unsuccessful attempt! I'm going to call the customer service tmr! :((
Yeah! I've finally seen Dearie and my family! I hugged Dear, my mum and brother. They were waiting patiently outside for me. We had dinner together with Dear's family, like the last dinner I had with them before I went to Germany. I still couldn't believe I'm in Singapore! I need some time to adjust. I slept quite early ytd, perhaps because of the long flight home. A perfect example of my jet lag is that I'm still awake at this point of time, not feeling any tiredness at all! 3am, I'm still wide awake!
I should go try and have some sleep in the air-conditioned room! Photos uploading tmr!
Stay tune for tons of photos. :)
I still miss you!
I'm really touched by the 1000 pieces of Jigsaw Puzzle & wooden made house done by you.
Thank you, my dear.
I love you.
